The Groovy Show

The Groovy Show was an American half-hour live dance program aired on weekday afternoons on KHJ-TV Channel 9, in the Los Angeles, California market from 1967 to 1970.

The second version of the show was The Groovy Game hosted by sister radio station KHJ DJ Sam Riddle and model Kam Nelson (who dated and later became engaged to Olympic pole vaulter Bob Seagren during their run).

Possibly as a local example of a comely young California woman who was recognizable in the Los Angeles market through her appearances on The Groovy Show, Kam Nelson would be featured in the opening credits of the 1970s Lloyd Haynes television program Room 222.

Stewart performed on the show with his then-backup group which consisted of singer Buffy Ford (who later became his wife), future rock photographer Henry Diltz, fiddle player Chris Darrow, and drummer Russ Kunkel.

In either event, the Morgan iteration was the show's last, and it soon disappeared from the airwaves, not to be forgotten by legions of Baby Boomers who came of age in Southern California during the program's run.
